"Java EE 7" and JBoss EAP 7.0 in Netbeans - java

I tried to add jboss-eap-7.0 to Netbeans 8.2 according to this article.
Then, I created an enterprise application in Netbeans and set the server to JBoss. But there is not Java EE 7 option to choose. How can I have "Java EE 7" coupled with "JBoss EAP 7.0" in Netbeans 8.2?

What you are attempting is not possible for several reasons.
While JBoss EAP 7 is EE 7 certified, it is not supported by NetBeans 8.2 / Java 8, and cannot be installed successfully.
If you followed the workaround in the link you cited, you told NetBeans that you were installing WildFly when you were actually installing JBoss. That may have allowed the installation to proceed, but it is not surprising that you had problems creating an app for that server afterwards.
Also, JBoss EAP 7 will not work with Java 8. See this link:
JBoss AS 7 does not work with Java 8. If you need to use Java 8
consider upgrading to WildFly (wildfly.org) which is a Java EE 7
implementation. WildFly is the new name for JBoss AS. When you try to run AS7 of JDK8 it will hang during the boot...
I can confirm that JBoss EAP 7 still hangs on startup with JDK 1.8. To proceed you have a several options, depending on the constraints of your development environment:
Use an IDE other than NetBeans 8.2 to install JBoss EAP 7. The obvious choice is JBoss Developer Studio from Red Hat. It's based on Eclipse, is free with registration and (not surprisingly) and makes installing and using JBoss easy. You still won't be able to use Java 8 though; you would have to use Java 7.
Switch to using WildFly (or some other alternative such as Payara) as your app server in NetBeans, rather than using JBoss EAP 7. This approach allows you to use Java 8 to develop, deploy and test EE 7 applications within NetBeans.
Download and install JBoss EAP 7 outside of NetBeans, and manually deploy your EE 7 applications to that server.

Oracle, GlassFish Tools in Eclipse Enterprise

Trying to setup eclipse following Definitive Guide to JSF in Java EE 8. Choosing 'No servers are available' does not list the required 'Oracle, GlassFish Tools'. I am using Eclipse version: 2021-06, on Windows 10 64-bit, Java JDK 15.0.2. I've trying installing GlassFish Tools from the eclipse market place without success. For some reason, on the Define New Server page, Tomcat v9.0 Server at localhost in listed as the Server name, Apache tomcat v9.0 is listed as the Server runtime environment.
Should I be re-installing eclipse for the enterprise?
You can use Payara Tools instead. I forked that initially from GlassFish Tools and added many improvements to it. It supports GlassFish as well.
The original GlassFish Tools hasn't been updated for a long time and is probably not compatible with the more recent Eclipse releases.

WebSphere Developer Tools 8.0 Not able to start server in modern Eclipse

I am trying to run Eclipse WebSphere Developer Tools with a local WebSphere 8.0.x installation. I also installed IBM's WebSphere Dev server and am having trouble successfully starting each server.
This is because the instructions say that the eclipse.ini should be updated to point to the IBM/WAS/AppServer/jre so that they match up. If you do not do this, the server will start but will spin at 100% because Eclipse can't get confirmation it started correctly. Eclipse warns you about not having the Eclipse JRE match the server JRE version.
I am using Eclipse Oxygen, which is Java 1.8. I installed WebSphere Developer Tools 8.0.x. WAS 8 is java 1.6, as such the server JRE/JDK is 1.6. Why would they make this tool for Eclipse Mars, Neon, Oxygen if you can't ever complete their instructions and make the Eclipse JRE align with the server JRE? Is there a way to get around this? I am wondering what I missed.
Eclipse Oxygen only supports Java 8 and above. You can get the JDK 8 from WebSphere Application Server v9 to run WDT in Oxygen. If you can point me to the instructions that you were following, we can review (and update if needed) to make sure the instructions are clear.

How to update WebLogic server JDK from 1.7 to 1.8 on Windows 7?

I wanted to upgrade the JDK version of my WebLogic server (10.3.6) from 1.7 to 1.8. What can be the possible steps required to do this?
I have existing weblogic and JDK old versions on Windows platform. I want to update them. But when I search document about update steps on internet, I couldn't find anything. They just mention about installing process.
As you want to update weblogic and jdk version 1.7 to 1.8,
Then you can uninstall both of them.
Then download weblogic 12.2.1 and jdk 8 from following link.
Weblogic download link: weblogic download from here
JDK8 download link: jdk 8 download from here
Then install JDK8 first and then weblogic. Hope it is easy.
From Oracle blogs documentation,
WebLogic 12.2.1 requires Java 8 (JDK 8) as a runtime.
WebLogic 12.1.3 can be used with Java 7 or Java 8. Using WebLogic
12.1.3 with Java 7 caused warnings because of the permspace settings in the WebLogic start scripts. Permspace is removed from JDK 8, so
also these warnings are gone now with WebLogic 12.2.1 and JDK8.
JDK 8 comes with Nashorn JavaScript engine. Try the jjs command line
tool. Read the complete article here.
You can also follow the link: JRE 8 compatibility with weblogic 10.3.6 (11g
I thought the support for Java 1.8 has begun with WLS 12.1.3.
So I assume its not possible/realistic to get wls10.x.x work with a newer jdk as 1.7.x.

Confusion after installation of JDK 1.7 and Java EE 7 SDK?

I am just starting with the Oracle Java EE 7 tutorial. While I have already gained some practice with an existing Apache Tomcat Environment I wanted to get in touch with the complete tutorial to have a clear learning path and trail.
So I am currently using a Mac with OS X Mavericks. I have already installed an Oracle JDK 1.7 which is working pretty smooth. Developing is also nice so no problems with that.
Now I came to the part in order to download "Java EE 7 SDK/JDK" (http://docs.oracle.com/javaee/7/tutorial/doc/usingexamples001.htm#GEXAJ)
I have done so and run the installer. What I can see it does is installing a glassfish4 environment (which seems to be fine as the tutorial covers glassfish and I would use it in tutorial). I also ran the Update Tool to get the java-ee-7-tutorial-examples.
Anyhow adding the glassfish server to netbeans 8 I mentioned in the "Java" Tab there is just JDK 1.7 which points to me 1.7 Java JDK location on the system.
Trying to find any specific EE 7 location nothing seems to be the right location (find / -name java)
So what exactly does this installation do in other words than just installing glassfish environment?
And what is the use case of having the EE 7 SDK/JDK ? Maybe I am a bit confused but I want to have these things clear for myself in order to understand it.
GlassFish Server Open Source Edition 4 is the reference implementation of the Java EE 7 specification. So you can never download Java EE itself like you do with Java SE by downloading the JDK, but you always download an application server implementing it.
At the moment, you have JBoss WildFly 8 as alternative, but it usually takes some time after more, especially commercial application servers like Oracle's WebLogic follow.
So concerning your IDE, you add the JDK as runtime as in every other java project and GlassFish as a server and target for your deployment.
Hint: In case you experience problems when trying to get the samples via updatetool (at least it was the case when I did the Java EE 7 tutorial), just try again - java.net is so awfully slow sometimes.

How can I get Java EE v5.0 to work with WAS 6.1?

How can I get Java EE v5.0 to run on Webpshere Application Server 6.1? My coworker is able to run EAR 5.0 projects, but the highest version I can use is 1.4. I need to be able to use EAR version 5.0
Thanks.
For the record we are both using IBM RAD 7.5.5 - she is on a windows 7 computer and I am on a windows 8 machine.
I tried installing a feature pack to WAS 6.1 but it didn't seem to help out at all.
You can't. I don't know what your coworker is doing, but she is not running JEE5 under WAS 6.1.
